A Facetime-Playtime is so much fun - except for not being able to share a hug! Bonnie and I have been trying to coordinate a playdate and it was so nice to finally make it happen last week! We decided to give each other the bird - just kidding! Those Pinkfresh Songbirds on a Branch stencils were calling to us and I had just gotten the coordinating die!
I used my birds for the Color Hues challenge where they are looking for lime green, and navy - here are the inks and I used black foil to hot foil the outlines... Congratulations on your 2nd birthday, Color Hues team!
Having that die allowed me to play with the placement of the elements a bit - tucking a bird here, layering the branch there. I arranged to have a spot for my sentiment, too - bonus! And while there were branches, I added a few more with a Mama Elephant Leafy cover die - leaving them white adds interest without confusing the eye, I think.
Bonnie used her songbirds for a different challenge - but wait until you see the colors she used!! Gorgeous, I'm telling you! Head on over with me, why don't you? She loves visits just as much as I do!
Thanks for sharing your crafty time and friendship, Bonnie! Let's do it again soon!
